Michael Drew Obituary

Michael David Drew (Mike), 72 of Montgomery, IL passed away suddenly on Sunday, October 1, 2023 due to cardiac arrest. He was fortunate to have spent his last evening surrounded by friends and family, laughing and enjoying their company before being called to the Lord.

Mike was born to the late Reverend Elwell "Rick" Drew and Marie Hyatt Drew. His early years were spent in California, but he was an Illinois resident the majority of his life. He was preceded in death by his wife of 41 years Janet Easter Drew. She was the love of his life and his best friend. Mike is survived by his daughters, Kristen Stalcup, Kelly Drew, and Kari Robinson; his sons-in-law, Scott Stalcup, Chris Doran, and Grant Robinson; his grandkids Mason, Kora, & Andrew Stalcup, Aiden & Aubrey Doran, and Noah Robinson; and his sisters, Sharon Aulis and family & Debbie Miller and family.

Services will be held on Monday, October 9, 2023 at Village Bible Church, 847 N. Rt 47, Sugar Grove, Il 60554. The family will receive friends from 3 PM to 7 PM with light refreshments and fellowship. A Memorial Service will immediately follow at 7 PM. We wish to honor Mike's memory with a celebration of his life and invite friends to share a short memory or brief story during the service. For more information or to sign the online guestbook, call 630-466-1330 or visit HealyChapel.com.

Condolences to the family of Mike Drew. I was friends with Mike as well as Janet. Mike was smart, funny and popular at Aurora College. He had many friends on campus. May he rest in peace.

Mike was such a great teammate, I´ll always remember the hundreds of games we played together. My favorite memory of him was when he would do his Smitty imitations, it never failed to make me laugh. Rest in Peace, Mike.
